Natural language processing (NLP) is the use of machines to manipulate natural language. This book teaches you how to build NLP applications with code and relevant case studies using Python. This book will introduce you to the basic vocabulary and a suggested workflow for building NLP applications to help you get started with popular NLP tasks such as sentiment analysis, entity recognition, part of speech tagging, stemming, and word embeddings.

Overview of this book
NLP in Python is among the most sought after skills among data scientists. With code and relevant case studies, this book will show how you can use industry-grade tools to implement NLP programs capable of learning from relevant data. We will explore many modern methods ranging from spaCy to word vectors that have reinvented NLP.
The book takes you from the basics of NLP to building text processing applications. We start with an introduction to the basic vocabulary along with a work?ow for building NLP applications.
We use industry-grade NLP tools for cleaning and pre-processing text, automatic question and answer generation using linguistics, text embedding, text classifier, and building a chatbot. With each project, you will learn a new concept of NLP. You will learn about entity recognition, part of speech tagging and dependency parsing for Q and A. We use text embedding for both clustering documents and making chatbots, and then build classifiers using scikit-learn.
We conclude by deploying these models as REST APIs with Flask.
By the end, you will be confident building NLP applications, and know exactly what to look for when approaching new challenges.
